Endgame Guide (WIP)

[Ryuni]

I've had this guide bookmarked for a while. Thank you so much for this in depth list it helps a lot! I'm still really confused on the status of AK. I'm one that hates to skip steps. So I'd want to get the armor sets in order. iLvl 50 set to ilvl 60 set etc. etc. But the dungeon with the ilvl 60 set is AK. This makes it looked like to do it in order I'd want to farm AK right after I get my AF. But everything I've heard and read says do AK DEAD DEAD DEAD last. It's where you get the tokens for the ilvl 90 stuff and it's hard as heck and has a long queue. So I really shouldn't touch it until I've cleared almost everything else. Am I being forced to skip a tier and some how get the crafted ilvl70 set?
Is there any other way outside AK (and crafting) to get the ilvl 60 set?

If you hate to skip steps then your first step as a level 50 is to do Wanderer's Palace over and over until you get a full set of iLevel 55 armors and the Darklight weapon from the last boss.
Then you can move on to HM Ifrit for your iLevel 60 weapon and AK for iLevel 60 armor pieces. You will get tomestones of philosophy from both WP and AK, so spend these to get your iLevel 70 Darklight gear. By doing AK, you will also get Mythology tomestones, use these to either upgrade your relic weapon to iLevel 90 or get armor pieces that are iLevel 90.

Binding Coil needs to be done in iLevel 70 gear (with rare iLevel 90 gear depending how long you have farmed Mythology tomestones) because Crystal Tower is missing, which is the place that you should visit when you get a full iLevel 70 set.

HM Ifrit for your iLevel 60 weapon

fixed that for you ;D

after grinding AK, you can proceed to garuda to get your iLv 70 weapon
at this point, you'll have several Darklight and AK gears, that would be sufficient for titan

Thanks, edited my post.

Since the person said that they didn't want to skip any steps, I think they want to get Ifrit weapon first, before attempting Garuda.

yes, that's also what i meant
after getting ifrit weapon and AK gears, you may then proceed to garuda, or do them both (ifrit & garuda) as the drop rate is very random
